Riding Tips - E-TON ROVER Owner's Manual

Driving your vehicle
Your vehicle should only be driven in an
area that is designated for this use. Insure
that the area is free of obstacles and other
dangers that could cause a loss of control.
Check with your local authorities for any
regulations regarding the use of your vehicle.
Always keep your feet on the footrests and
your hands on the steering wheel while
operating your vehicle. Doing so will give
you the best control of the unit.
Start your vehicle by following the starting
procedure above and allow the engine a
few minutes to warm up before releasing
the parking brake.
Start the unit by slowly increasing the throttle
until the unit begins moving.
Turning your vehicle
Learning to turn your vehicle requires you
to learn to shift your weight and control the
throttle to allow the rear wheels to turn
properly. When making a turn, the wheels
on the outside of the turn must travel a wider
radius and thus a greater distance than the
inside wheels of the turn. Since the rear
axle does not permit a different rate of
rotation, it is not enough to merely steer
Your vehicle into the turn.
To turn properly, steer in the direction of
the turn and lean your body to the inside
of the turn while supporting your weight on
the outer footrest. supporting your weight
on the outer footrest.
maintain power through out the turn.
If you do not use this turning technique the
unit will have a tendency to continue in a
straight line. If this occurs, release the
throttle lever to allow the unit to stop. Avoid
braking or accelerating until you have
regained directional control.
